TUI has reassessed the current situation due to the continuing challenging situation caused by the forest fires on Rhodes. In order to ensure the safety of guests and to be able to offer them a trouble-free holiday period, the following measures have been taken:
-All bookings of TUI holidays to Rhodes will be cancelled up to and including Friday, 28 July 2023. No guests will be taken to the island up to and including Friday, however aircraft will fly out empty to Rhodes so scheduled inbound flights will take place to bring guests back to their home countries. Guests with bookings whose holidays start in the coming days up to and including Sunday, 30 July 2023, can rebook for other destinations or cancel their trip free of charge. We therefore encourage customers with a planned holiday to Rhodes in the coming days, to switch to other destinations.
-All bookings of TUI holidays to the south-eastern part of the island will also be cancelled up to and including Sunday, 30 July 2023 (see list of affected hotels).
For further information, affected holidaymakers are asked to contact TUI. The group is in contact with the local authorities on Rhodes, the South Aegean region and with the Greek government in Athens. On Monday morning, TUI had deployed six additional aircraft to bring holidaymakers from Germany and the UK back to their home countries.
The group had around 39,000 guests on the island, 7,800 of whom were affected by the situation. They were taken to other locations on the island and are staying in hotels or accommodation designated by the local authorities. More than 300 service staff in south-eastern Rhodes for the safety of TUI guests and provide them with replacement accommodation, food and drinks. The situation on the ground is constantly evolving and changing and is regularly reassessed by the travel group.
